Body of email sent by NOW to activists:
Come to the Capital Hilton at 16th and K Streets in Washington, D.C., tonight at 5:30pm to let House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and the right wing know that we will not let them control our courts, our bodies or our future!
The Capital Hilton is the location of a lavish right-wing tribute to Rep. Tom Delay.
This right wing love fest-which will include lobbyists and staffers from the Heritage Foundation, American Conservative Union, Traditional Values Coalition and a dozen other conservative groups-has been organized in an effort to surround DeLay with friendly faces during his "time of need."
DeLay has been trying to duck ethics charges for months regarding overseas travel and questionable ties to lobbyists. He continues to deny any wrongdoing, despite how increasingly vocal even some congressional Republicans have become on this issue.
Come out to the Capital Hilton tonight to let DeLay and his right-wing cronies know that we will keep fighting until our rights are secure.
WHO: Tom DeLay and His Right-Wing Cronies
WHERE: Capital Hilton on 16th and K Streets, NW
WHEN: 5:30pm, May 12th
WHY: Lavish Right-Wing Tribute to Tom DeLay
LOOK FOR NOW ROUNDS AND ACTIVISTS at the site!

"I didn't get that e-mail"
NOW is sooo then.
Are they bringing pies? Liberals don't have the brains to debate so they throw pies.
Why, to show those three in the NOW gang they're irrelevant?
Where was NAG (National Association of Gals) during the murder of defenseless woman Terri Schiavo at the hands of all those extremely creepy men (Michael, Felos, Greer, and an army of other male Judicial Tyrants)?

You're right! NOW was no where to be found when it came to defending an abused woman.
Obviously the NOW group is nothing but a bunch of hypocrites, who could care less about women. If they cared, they would have supported Delay in his efforts, to prevent a so called husband, from treating his wife like property and having her killed. Delay wasn't trying to take away women's rights or anyone elses.
Delay was trying to stop the Forced Execution of an innocent disabled woman by the State of Florida. The idiots of NOW can't see that Terri's body WAS controlled by her husband and the judical system. I guess they think it's okay for Judges and husbands to decide when an innocent women dies or if she is allowed therapy and etc.
All the lastest attacks against Delay have been a result of the stand he took against the unjustice done to Terri. I'm totally disgusted with the MSM for attacking Delay. I hope all Republicans will stand up for him like never before. It's outrageous that the likes of George Soros and Move On can get away with attacking a fine man like Rep Tom Delay.
If NOW was in the slightest a pro-woman organization (and not an utterly phony leftist front group) they would be ferociously supporting Tom Delay.
